So, wd, how well did that tax credit for shitty electric cars initiative turn out? As far as I can tell, the only thing that that really accomplished was a whole hell of a lot of cheap golf-carts for rich people.............Oh, and to answer YOUR question, HR, I would have to say, no, wd wouldn't trust Republicans on this or any other matter.

A pretty good case can be made that Will is fairly describing these electric cars.

What else can be said about when you get a Nissan Leaf all ready to go, and it will die on the road a mere 73 miles after starting out, while normal cars will take you hundreds of miles down the road without needing more energy.

Just try this out in the real world. Consider a short jaunt, say from Los Angeles to Palm Springs. You Nissan Leaf will let you down for sure (pwned!), while even a shoddy old 1979 Chrysler LeBaron with 10 mpg will get you to your destination.
